Default Ugandan anti-gay pastor airs gay porn in church

The Associated Press
Posted: 02/18/2010

KAMPALA, Uganda—A Ugandan pastor is showing gay pornography at church to try to garner support for a proposed law that would impose the death penalty for some gays.
Martin Ssempa showed the videos to some 100 adults during a church service Wednesday in Uganda's capital.

He says he plans to show the films regularly to educate churchgoers on gay sex and also plans to show the videos to parliamentarians. He says some churchgoers cried after watching the videos, which he said he downloaded from the Internet.

Ugandan gay rights activist Julian Peppe condemned Ssempa's decision to show pornography in church, saying he should be arrested and needs mental rehabilitation.

The proposed bill has sparked protests in London, New York and Washington.

Is it possible you've forgotten the "Stupid ignorant jackass" angle? .....

I find it remarkable that anyone thinks they have any right to tell people what they can and can't do with their own bodies, especially in private with another consenting person!
That said, it may not be because this pastor is a really hateful person (although it's more probable than not), but because he genuinely believes that his god hates homosexuality, as written in the Bible, and wants to please his god.
Either way, his actions are disgraceful and inexcusable!

Well, if he is doing the repressing thing, playing teh pr0n in church as a warning or whatever does give him a "legitimate" way to actually watch it...hopefully, he's waiting until after the service for the fapping to commence, though.

Exactly. For someone to spend time doing all that research to unearth just the right and most shocking pron videos, you have to get some pleasure out of it. How pathetic. Wouldn't that person crying also cry watching straight pron?

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.
